Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson Airport

Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson Airport (often referred to simply as Atlanta International Airport) is located 11 km south of Downtown Atlanta, Georgia. For the past several years, Hartsfield-Jackson has remained at the top of the congestion list, both in terms of passenger traffic and number of takeoffs and landings. It has 207 domestic and international gates.

In late December 2015, Atlanta Airport welcomed its first-ever one-hundred-millionth passenger, who was presented with a car, two airline tickets and a gift card.

“Hartsfield-Jackson is a major hub for travelers who intend to visit the southeastern United States. Delta Air Lines, ExpressJet, and low-cost carrier Southwest Airlines are based here. For example, the world’s largest airline Delta Air Lines operates more than 1,000 flights daily.

The most popular domestic destination is Atlanta, Georgia to Orlando, Florida. There are 704,000 annual flights between Atlanta and Cancun, Mexico.

The huge airport complex includes a domestic terminal (the main building, divided into north and south parts), an international terminal and 7 parallel concourses (A, B, C, D, E, F and T). Concourse T refers to the domestic terminal, Concourse F to the international terminal.

Service and entertainment at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport is not widely represented, which is a distinctive feature of most U.S. airports. The range of services provided is functionally simple and modest. Here is a basic set of services that should be offered in airports of this level:

  • Currency exchange offices, a bank, ATMs;
  • Mother and baby room;
  • Car rentals;
  • Cafes, snack bars and some stores.
